Gone are the days when you had to take out your phone to check out your sms and reminders. A Japanese company Matilde have come up with glasses which do the trick. Spotted at CNET Japan’s live 2014 event, these Fun-iki glasses connect to your smartphone via Bluetooth. Whenever a notification pops up, a trio of LED's above each lens start glowing. The light is a mixture of basic colors- red, green and blue and you’ll be able to assign any color to a specific notification. There are three different modes of light up: Disco, Party and Relax. In Relax mode, the LED's fade in and out while Disco and Party mode make the LED's go a little crazy. These glasses also have an ambient light sensor fitted in it. But still if you fail to see the LED's flashing, due to surrounding light, you won’t miss anything as these glasses have speakers fitted in their arms which play music whenever a notification pops up.

Powered by lithium-ion battery, these glasses will flash LED's for two days, before you charge them once again. You can charge these glasses using a micro-USB port which is placed on the end of the left arm. There is one mechanical push button given at the top to switch ON and to switch OFF these glasses. Even with so many things fitted in them; these glasses have a negligible weight of 38.5 grams.

The company says that it’ll go for sale later this year and it’ll have a price tag of 15,000 yen ($147).
